The American Pie franchise has had a lasting impact due to its cast, originality, and memorable moments, making it the quintessential teen comedy. The best way to watch all the American Pie movies is either by release date or chronological order, simplifying the decision-making process. American Pie and American Pie 2 are the most successful entries in terms of box office gross, while American Wedding had the lowest earnings and weakest group dynamic.
Whether in chronological order or by release date, all nine American Pie movies in the franchise are sure to give viewers a good laugh. While the teen comedy genre has faded, American Pie left a strong impression on audiences mainly because of its cast, originality, and ridiculously memorable moments. Even though other teen comedies, like Not Another Teen Movie, She's All That, and Get Over It, have their supporters, American Pie reigns supreme as the quintessential teen comedy franchise.

Even 12 years after the last movie, American Pie 5 remains on the cards for much of the cast and could be released in the coming years from Universal.
The first four American Pie movies were released from 1999 to 2012. Over the years, the franchise has been accompanied by five more American Pie Presents direct-to-home release spin-offs, each of which stars some relative of Sean William Scott's ironically outrageous Steve Stifler.

Rumors of a fifth American Pie movie have persisted since 2012, with the potential for a storyline centered around Jim's dad and Stifler's mom. Jennifer Coolidge's recent comeback, thanks to her role in The White Lotus, makes a Stifler's mom story in American Pie 5 even more appealing.
American Pie 5 has been rumored to be in development for years, and the best idea for it is now perfect thanks to the big comeback of one of its cast members. In 1999, the sex comedy American Pie made way for one of the most controversial yet profitable franchises in the comedy genre. American Pie introduced viewers to Jim Levenstein (Jason Biggs), an awkward high school senior who made a pact with his friends to lose their virginity by high school graduation. American Pie’s success made way for a franchise with spin-offs and three sequels, the latter continuing Jim’s story.

The screenwriter of American Reunion teases a possible storyline for American Pie 5. The potential storyline would explore whether or not the romantic relationship between Jim's dad and Stifler's mom worked out. No American Pie 5 is currently in the works, though a sixth spinoff is in development.
A possible storyline for American Pie 5 has been teased by a screenwriter of American Reunion. The American Pie movies, which began in 1999, form a teen sex comedy franchise that follows the lives of best friends Jim (Jason Biggs), Kevin (Thomas Ian Nicholas), Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas), and Oz (Chris Klein), as well as their crude, hard-partying acquaintance Stifler (Seann William Scott) and their various love interests. Although five direct-to-dvd spinoffs were also made, the main branch of the franchise includes just four movies: the original, 2001's American Pie 2, 2003's American Wedding, and 2012's American Reunion.

It would be almost impossible to imagine comedy in the late '90s and early 2000s without "American Pie." For people of that generation, it was a defining film that went on to become a massive mainstream hit, spawning a long-running franchise that made Universal Pictures a lot of money. It also made stars of Jason Biggs, Sean William Scott, Natasha Lyonne, Tara Reid, and much of the rest of the cast. Now, 24 years later, it appears a fifth theatrically released "American Pie" movie is on the way.
We learned last year that Sujata Day ("Insecure") has been tapped to write a "fresh take" on the franchise for Universal Pictures. It will be the first entry in the series to hit theaters since 2012's "American Reunion." It makes sense for the studio to revisit Jim, Stifler, and the gang, as the series has grossed nearly $1 billion at the global box office to date.

Bottoms is a unique and self-aware teen sex comedy that features LGBTQ+ women as its leads, subverting genre tropes in an exaggerated high-school world. Other classic and contemporary teen sex comedies like American Pie, The To-Do List, and Can't Hardly Wait capture the spirit and humor of "Bottoms" in their own ways. Films like Booksmart, Superbad, and Blockers offer a fresh and feminist take on the genre, showcasing strong performances and subverting traditional tropes.
Viewers who are still reeling from the frenetic energy of Bottoms won't find another movie out there about a lesbian fight club, but they can fill the void with some other great teen sex comedies. With a screenplay from Shiva Baby duo Emma Seligman, who also directs, and Rachel Sennott, Bottoms chronicles best pals Pj (Sennott) and Josie's (The Bear's Ayo Edebiri) attempts to impress - and hook up with - their cheerleader crushes before high school ends.

American Pie co-stars Jennifer Coolidge and Eddie Kaye Thomas spent some time as roommates, but life did not imitate art, as the relationship stayed platonic. That's what Coolidge says in a new interview with British GQ, recalling how she once roomed with Thomas after the two had met on the set of American Pie. She says the two lived together in Los Angeles in the early 2000s, but while the characters they played may have gotten intimate in the fictional world of American Pie, the two dated separately when they were roommates.
"I wasn’t the love of his life,” Coolidge recalls with a chuckle. “He had girlfriends. My bedroom was across the hallway from his.”
In the first American Pie film, released in 1999, Coolidge plays Jeanine Stifler, the mother of Steve Stifler (Seann William Scott). Much to the chagrin of Steve, Thomas' Paul Finch, aka "Sh*t Break," manages to seduce Jeanine,...

Speaking with Comicbook.com, Scott declared that they have a plan for American Pie 5, and that the idea behind it is so good it will even work within these “tough” comedic times.

The plans for American Pie 5 suggest that the long-awaited sequel will make radical changes to what made the original series so successful. Released in 1999, American Pie tells the coming-of-age story of five high school classmates who vow to lose their virginity before graduation. American Pie was a box office success upon release and has since become a cult classic thanks to its outrageous moments and quotable lines. As such, it's unsurprising that executives remain keen to revive the lucrative series. However, everything that has come so far after the original movies in the series has been straight-to-video at best.
The success of American Pie led to a whole franchise - with three sequels featuring the principal cast and several straight-to-video spinoff movies. In 2012, Universal secured the rights to produce American Pie 5, but the development of the film has been slow until now. The Hollywood Reporter broke the news...

American Pie star Tara Reid has teased a fifth sequel to the hugely popular teen comedy franchise, confirming that a script for American Pie 5 is ready. While there have been a whole host of spin-offs branching off from the 1999 original, it has now been close to a decade since audiences last caught up with the American Pie gang. However, according to Reid, fans may not have to wait too much longer.
"It might happen... okay, I can't tell you when, because I don't really know when, because we have to get all the actors and at the same time to get our schedules together. There is a script out there. I'll put it that way."

It’s hard to believe that American Pie arrived over twenty years ago as it seems like just yesterday that we were all listening to wild band camp stories and getting hilarious advice from Jim’s awkward father. Over two decades later, the iconic R-rated comedy has spawned multiple sequels and spinoffs and inspired tons of other comedies, but as of yet, we’re still left waiting for a proper American Pie 5.
Whether or not the fifth installment ever happens remains to be seen, of course, but in the meantime, the brand is continuing to pump out spinoffs and the latest is American Pie Presents: Girls’ Rules. As you can see in the trailer up above, it’s not exactly the new outing that fans may be hoping for, but it’s still the first entry in the franchise in quite a long time and looks to be following...

Universal Pictures has released a new trailer for American Pie Presents: Girls' Rules. While not quite a proper fifth entry in the main series, this is the first entry of any kind in the franchise in nearly a decade. It is the first in the direct-to-video "presents" series since 2009's The Book of Love. In this case, we have a female-centric story, which the studio has promised will be making its way to Netflix soon. As we can see in the trailer, it looks very much in line with previous spin-offs released over the years.
The trailer reveals a group of girls who are having issues with their love lives. They make a pact to repair this, leading to a series of hijinks. A lot of focus is put on the fact that this is flipping the script, making it about the girls instead of the guys. The plot feels...

American Pie stars Jason Biggs and Shannon Elizabeth have reunited 20 years later, and the two both seem open to seeing a reboot of the franchise. In the original installment of the popular movie series, Biggs and Elizabeth had a very memorable scene wherein the former blew his chances for a sexual encounter with the latter.
Two decades later, Jason Biggs and Shannon Elizabeth are both appearing in Kevin Smith's new comedy Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, and Biggs and Elizabeth caught back up on the red carpet at the Tcl Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles for a screening of the movie. Speaking about a possible new movie, Biggs had this say about the idea.

Two decades later, the iconic R-rated comedy has spawned three sequels and countless spinoffs. It’s the inspiration for numerous movies that have come after it as well and has a loyal base of fans who are still eagerly awaiting the release of American Pie 5.
Whether or not the fifth installment of the franchise ever actually comes to fruition remains to be seen, though.

Seann William Scott is ready and willing to revisit a couple of his most iconic characters. While American Pie 5 and Goon 3 aren't officially in the works, Scott is interested in reprising arguably his two most iconic roles, Steve Stifler and Doug Glatt.

During the course of the conversation, I asked him about American Pie 5, which Tara Reid implied was a strong possibility last year.
